He’s going to get praised for this on Twitter and be let off Scot-free in court isn’t he?

[-] Assian_Candor@hexbear.net 17 points 6 days ago

Nah, not like he shot an innocent black child, he shot a fellow florida-cracker

[-] FuckyWucky@hexbear.net 17 points 6 days ago

praised idk if he were a cop, sure.

[-] SadArtemis@hexbear.net 3 points 5 days ago

I'm reminded of that cop-on-(undercover) cop video where they realize he shot his buddy. "I thought he was a bad guy!!!" agony-yehaw

Also since I can't just reference such a treat without sharing it (rewatched it and it's even better than I remembered lmao)

He saw someone he thought was a random guy standing outside his car window and his first thought was 'I should shoot this person'?

I get why they were on lookout, but you still can't shoot random people you think may be the dangerous individual you had in mind, and even the person they had in mind (as far as I can tell from the article), it doesn't sound like they were 100% on whether he was out to harm them or not.

What's gotten into people?

[-] egg1918@hexbear.net 18 points 6 days ago

Yeah and they article says it's accidental. There's nothing accidental about this at all. He saw a person, decided to shoot them, then shot them.

[-] Adkml@hexbear.net 12 points 5 days ago

He wanted a legal justification to shoot somebody.

He tried to put himself Ina situation where he could argue he was in danger and therfore justified in shooting.

Same thing as Rittenhouse and Zimmerman.

This guy is just extra pathetic because he literally just waited for the first vaguely human shaped silhouette he could find and then yelled "they're coming right at us"

Because his desire to murder somebodybwas greater than even the most basic of brain functions.

When I feel threatened, what I like to do is go out and sit in my car where I’m immensely more vulnerable (??)

[-] AntiOutsideAktion@hexbear.net 14 points 6 days ago

Hey bro, you free tonight? Wanna go stake out my sister's house in a car?

Charged with manslaughter? These fuckers were seeking out a legal kill, they are murderers.

Glad one of them is dead. Should have been both. 😞

It's the dunk tank.

This is where you come to post big-brained hot takes by chuds, libs, or even fellow leftists, and tear them to itty-bitty pieces with precision dunkstrikes.

Rule 1: All posts must include links to the subject matter, and no identifying information should be redacted.

Rule 2: If your source is a reactionary website, please use archive.is instead of linking directly.

Rule 3: No sectarianism.

Rule 4: TERF/SWERFs Not Welcome

Rule 5: No ableism of any kind (that includes stuff like libt*rd)

Rule 6: Do not post fellow hexbears.

Rule 7: Do not individually target other instances' admins or moderators.

Rule 8: The subject of a post cannot be low hanging fruit, that is comments/posts made by a private person that have low amount of upvotes/likes/views. Comments/Posts made on other instances that are accessible from hexbear are an exception to this. Posts that do not meet this requirement can be posted to !shitreactionariessay@lemmygrad.ml

Rule 9: if you post ironic rage bait im going to make a personal visit to your house to make sure you never make this mistake again
